    It is terrible for cruor farming. A lot of good the extra cruor does you when you're getting red chests instead of blue. UNLESS WE ARE TALKING CRUOR CHAIN PARTIES. If your only goal is to farm gold or blue chests, ruby is your #1 enemy. For everything else you better farm ruby light.

    There are people who try to farm cruor using something other than cruor chains? What sense does that make?

    Cruor farming as a secondary goal, or side effect? I've accumulated over 8M cruor so far, and I only ever went cruor farming one single time, and I promise you, it's not from that. I believe for the vast majority of people the vast majority of cruor comes from other things than purposefully cruor farming runs.

    I wouldn't mind an option for this, as Azure, Ruby and Amber can all be annoying, but I don't think it's necessary. Anything other than EXP you shouldn't do with people you don't trust. And seal farming, although that doesn't require lights anyway.

    If you are farming specifically for cruor ("cruor farming" would suggest this), then you should be making a "Cruor chain party"...

    To be fair, cruor chain parties actually require some concentration and communication to keep going, and don't generally benefit from more bodies. Maybe I've just run into bad luck/am terrible at this game, but if I'm specifically targeting cruor I tend to do way better solo than even with one other person working through another camp. More cruor is good, for sure, but I'm totally 100% satisfied with 30-40k an hour from worms if it means I don't have to pay attention.
